Question

I've had a greenish lump under the skin on the left side of my chest for 34 years. It doesn't hurt but has a nucleus, and lately I feel like it's gotten bigger. Could this be something serious and which specialist should I see? Would I need surgery to remove it?

A 34-year-old chest lump increasing in size should be evaluated by a surgeon or dermatologist.Surgery may be needed if suspicious.
